Association between Long COVID and neuropsychological outcomes in a Brazilian Cohort: preliminary results
Preliminary results showed that long COVID induced impairment in executive functions, specifically in working memory and episodic memory scores. Additionally, there was an impact of depressive symptoms in the relationship between group and TMT-B scores. Participants with depressive symptoms had worsened cognitive performance on the regression analysis. A larger sample should corroborate these findings and provide further insights into the long COVID cognitive impact.
